I typically keep a few cans of it in our garage.  I have not needed any
lately, since the Monte Carlo isn't leaking it anymore.  

A few weeks ago, it was too hot to ride.  I won't ride when the temps go
over 95 degrees.  It isn't fun when it gets that hot.

I had to go up in the attic last weekend to adjust the dampers that go to
the upstairs rooms to get the air flow evened out.  I did it early in the
morning before it went up to 100 degrees outside.  I would be willing to
bet, the attic gets to around 130 degrees on days like that.  Takes you
breath away and instant sweat.
